Chapter 134: One Man with One Pistol
"Stop moving! Hold on to it! "As soon as the devil army attacked Jinan City, Ryosuke Isoya immediately sent an order. He was impressed by the more than 2,000 corpses during the day, and the strength shown by the vanguard army still made him taboo. Therefore, he directly ordered to guard the vicinity of the northern city gate. After daybreak, the army slowly entered the city. At night, it is too dangerous for the army to enter an unfamiliar city.
He ordered his subordinates to re-mothe and guard the special bullets that were to be fired, and to be ready to use them at any time. Almost, Ryosuke Isoya, who was in a hurry, was about to release poison gas. Unexpectedly, Jinan City was suddenly captured. Now that he has gained a firm foothold, what he needs is a Jinan that can be used, not a dead city.
At the same time, Meng Xiang is also issuing orders:
"The base continues to produce pistols! All the pistols in stock were issued, and every soldier participating in the defense of the city was required to have one! ”
The hand-to-hand combat on the Eastern Front made Meng Xiang remember it vividly. It is unrealistic to ask soldiers to quickly improve their melee combat skills, and now the way to quickly improve melee defense is to have a pistol per person. Originally, only three or five people in each class had a pistol, but now each person has one.
This move not only made the officers and officials a little dumbfounded, but even the soldiers below were also talking and sighing.
Chen Ergou took back the gun, and just now he only killed one devil, and he saw that the devils had all shrunk behind the bunker. He touched the pistol on his waist and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Chen Ergou never thought that he would have the opportunity to step on a pistol, and he had only been a soldier for less than a year.
When training in Sichuan, several people shared a rifle, and Chen Ergou clearly remembered that the platoon commander said that the gun was purchased by Zhao Dudu during the Qing Dynasty axe. But it still didn't prevent him from practicing good marksmanship.
Although he has only shot 30 bullets in total, he has been the best slingshot target in the area around since he was a child. Thanks to the fact that he has always been accurate in slingshots since he was a child, he used a homemade bow and arrow to shoot a hare in the mountains at the age of ten. After the age of fifteen, the prey he caught with his bow and arrow could subsidize the family and solve the problem of food and clothing.
But the good times didn't last long, and the family began to be embarrassed by the closure of the mountain by the nearby big landlords, and his mother's serious illness forced him to find another way. In order to get ten oceans to settle in and pay for his mother's medical expenses, he stepped into the conscription office that his eldest brother had been warning him about. This year, he was only seventeen.
After a month of recruit training, he went out of Sichuan with the rushing team.
These words were far away from him, and all he knew was that after a memorable punch and kick during the recruit training period, he remembered the instruction "must obey the orders of the commander".
After that, it was the first time he went out that far, or to the legendary capital, the first time he went to the battlefield, the first time he was wounded, and he almost died.
But in the end, he was rescued by a team that was said to be called the Vanguard Army, and crossed the river from a long bridge.
It was the longest bridge he'd ever seen. I heard that it was erected in half a night's work, which is unimaginable. The shells on the devil's gunboat came from afar, and the pontoon bridge swayed, but miraculously not a single shell hit. I heard that this is the blessing of the water dragon king of the Yangtze River, after all, this is on our territory.
He was slightly injured, and it didn't take long for the team doctor in the vanguard army to heal his injuries. Later, it was these people who had no one to take care of, who followed Commander Wu and joined the Vanguard Army.
He really didn't expect that he would be able to join the Pioneer Army, and he heard that the people in the Pioneer Army are very powerful. At that time, when he broke through, because his injuries were not very serious, he was left behind to participate in the resistance of the vanguard army. At this time, he was given a Mauser rifle, and I heard that it was a pure German product.
He didn't know where Germany was, but he felt that the German rifle seemed to be a part of his body, and it was very comfortable to use. The good eyesight cultivated by hunting at night for a long time made him remember vividly that he had killed two little devils with that gun.
What made him admire was that the vanguard soldier next to him had killed eleven of them. Chen Ergou has seen it, except for a monocular, the gun he is holding is the same as the gun in his hand.
But it also surprised him, a pioneer soldier with the same weapon next to the soldier was also equally skilled, Chen Ergou counted clearly, and the man also killed nine.
As a result, since he was a child, he began to admire these warriors.
Later, when Commander Wu joined the vanguard army, he did not hesitate to follow.
When he came out, many people were shouting that if he couldn't run away, the devil would have no face to go home. Since he can't go home for the time being, he can also learn some skills with these capable people. When I go back to the village, I can brag about it.
I remember that time, when he beat the wild wolf, the prettiest little lotus in the village used to keep staring at him, making him sleep peacefully for several nights.
After joining the Vanguard Army, he did not regret it. Because he was injured in the Nanjing Blockade, he has been recuperating from his injuries, and did not follow Deng Shaohu to the Eastern Front.
Instead, after recovering from his injuries, he was arranged to Jinan to prepare to participate in the street fight.
After the initial test, he was directly promoted to private first class for his excellent shooting skills, and in addition to being issued a rifle with a mirror, he also had a pistol pinned to his waist. This made him very excited, you know, I had seen a pistol only in the past, and I didn't have a platoon commander. Wang San, who was on the same team, said that only officials are equipped with pistols, and now he also has a pistol.
If Wang San, who had mixed up with the correspondent, hadn't followed their company commander and left when the regiment commander decided to defect to the vanguard army, Chen Ergou would have laughed at him. The pistols he spoke of were available only to officials, and now every soldier in the vanguard army had them, and they were said to be American. When I see Wang San later, I will shame him to death.
Chen Ergou thought that he was standing in front of Wang San with a pistol, and Xiaolian beside him was silently watching his scene, and he couldn't help but think crazy.
The American goods in Chen Ergou's hands are M1911A1,. In the last battle, it was also revealed that Luger's stagnation effect was slightly weaker. Often to deal with the devils who pounce, as long as it is not concentrated, 1 bullet is not very effective, and 2 or 3 bullets are needed.
To this end, Meng Xiang urgently produced a batch of M1911A1 with a large stop effect, mainly for those machine guns and snipers. As for the 9 mm bullet of Suomi and the 11.43 mm bullet of the M1911A1, it is not universal, so the soldiers who use the Suomi submachine gun still use Luger, but the soldiers are specially reminded of the hand-to-hand combat tactics and require 2 combos. This minimizes melee losses.
This time, it was indeed everyone who got the pistol.
When Zhao Tiedan got the pistol, he hid in a remote place, grabbed the pistol in his left hand with one hand, and slowly stroked the thick-backed broadsword on his knee with the other, and tears couldn't help but flow.
A few years ago, in the battle with the little devil on the edge of the Great Wall, his own brother was killed by the little devil's officer with a pistol in order to protect him. Although the level of the company's broadsword is good, most of them have been sacrificed under the machine guns and artillery fire of the devils before, and the enemy is outnumbered, so naturally they can't fight the little devils.
Even if the younger brother's big knife hacked three devils to death, it still couldn't withstand the pistol of the annoyed little devil.
At that time, when his brother died, he was only five steps away from him, but he could only watch him being defeated by the devil. If he had a pistol at that time, he would have been able to defeat that little devil at that time, and his brother would not have fallen.
The younger brother's broadsword technique was taught by him, and he was already better than the blue, much more flexible than him, but still not as fast as a gun. Not only his younger brother, but even Company Commander Zhang, who was the best at playing with a big knife, fell under the gun. Only he survived, and after the armistice, he left the team in sadness and stayed in Jinan City for three or four years.
The Anti-Japanese War of the Vanguard Army some time ago made his heart active, and the idea of fighting devils still did not change.
Avenge!
He wants to seek revenge on the devil.
Zhao Tiedan stroked the Luger pistol that had just been issued in his hand, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, looked up at the treetops above his head and sighed.
In fact, not only the 9mm bullet is not only Luger, but also the 9mm high-power Browning pistol.
At the beginning, Meng Xiang, who was a pseudo-military fan, was more familiar with Luger than Browning, because Luger in later generations was coaxed up as a work of art, so that Meng Xiang, a little white, was familiar. But this time, after Fan Chong recommended a 9mm high-power Browning pistol, after seeing this high-power pistol, Meng Xiang began to be moved.
Browning, Meng Xiang had heard of it, but he didn't really know much about the 9mm high-power pistol before. Afterwards, when he heard Rat 211 describe the characteristics of the gun to him and provide him with the news that the Belgian FN company had produced nearly 30,000 pistols, Meng Xiang couldn't help but regret that he was a novice and did not discover this classic weapon in advance, but had always been superstitious about the noble Luger in the gun.
This made him decide that when he got a firm foothold, he must set up a weapons laboratory and experiment with all the weapons one by one, so as to choose a better combination from them. If you have the opportunity, you may be able to absorb the advantages and strengths of various weapons and design and produce new classic weapons yourself.
The 9-mm Browning had a magazine of 13 rounds more than Lugar's 8 rounds. Sometimes, a single bullet can save a life. The 9mm Browning is also used with the 9*19mm Balabylum pistol cartridge, which can be used with Lugar as well as with Somi. This advantage made Meng Xiang ready to gradually replace Lugar with a 9mm Browning.
Because of the tight schedule, there were not many 9-millimeter Brownings produced on the fly.
After returning from injury, Zhang Feihu, who had just joined the vanguard army, was flipping the two powerful Brownings in his hands at this time. When I used to be a beard in Wufeng Mountain, I saw a big boss use one of the red eyebrows, and this is the second time I've seen it. Since he followed the second master to surrender to Zhang Dashuai, the pistol used in his hand has never been so good.
Recalling his previous majesty of wielding two guns, he carefully made his request. As a result, after he performed his double-gun stunt, he was actually issued two pistols at his request. Although it is a pity that there are no horses and he cannot gallop to his heart's content, it is said that there will be armored cars and motorcycles in the team in the next step, which makes him look forward to it.
Zhang Shaoshuai later went out to admonish the army and was taken to Nanjing by Lao Jiang. These guards have been staying in Nanjing City and waiting for an opportunity. The city of Nanjing was broken, and the young marshal was taken away. And their unattended guards were left in Nanjing.
When he was in Nanjing, he once encountered the armored car of the devil, and the pistol at that time did not work at all. Thanks to his good brother "Three Hands" holding a bundle of grenades to blow up a stall, otherwise he would have died on the spot that time, and he would not have been saved after being detained by the devil. Of course, you won't come across such a strange team as the Vanguard. It's generous to distribute weapons, don't they know that it takes a lot of money?
"It's rich!" Finally, Zhang Feihu sighed.
"It's so rich!" Fan Chong also sighed.
Meng Xiang still insisted on sending the pistol to every soldier's hand, since Lao Mei can, why can't the Chinese people? Even the example of the soldiers used to exchange money by Fan Chong was rejected by Meng Xiang. As long as the soldiers belong to the vanguard army, how can they covet this profit? If you exchange money, you can exchange money, and it can also be used as hard currency, and it is a benefit to solve difficult problems. As long as it's not really greedy.
Strict military discipline and military management will also control the loss of firearms, and the strict management of firearms, which is the most praised in later generations, can be done, and there is no reason why it can't be done in the army of the vanguard army?
With this, Meng Xiang plans to popularize pistols not only among soldiers in the defense of Jinan, but also for other teams. As long as you leave the novice training area and become a qualified soldier, whether you are a veteran or a new soldier, you will have a pistol to defend yourself.
Of course, the next step in the course of a qualified soldier must be added to the score of hand-to-hand combat. The results of the last hand-to-hand fight with the devil were too miserable, even if they fought for the blood surname, the result was still heavy casualties.
Meng Xiang didn't hear Fan Chong's exclamation, and with the dawn coming, he was now preparing for the start of another battle. It's time for the tanks of the armored regiment to get moving.
